Relax with a glass of local wine after preparing dinner using the kitchen equipped with full range of modern appliances.

Pretty property

Salt Spring is a pretty property featuring some interesting artworks in a lovely treed area. Screens blocked off the other properties very well. Although close to a main road you do tune out the road noise. The cottage we were in did have many stairs and no walk in shower which our 83 year old mum found a challenge. It had a simple kitchen and was a nicely appointed property for our short break. The hot tub was great. We had a quick response to a question we had about accessing the property. Definitely for adults!

SISTERS WEEKEND

Fantastic location to stay in Daylesford. Short walk to the fabulous Mill and lovely bushwalking tracks in and around Lake Daylesford. The birdlife was great and we met and fed the resident kookaburras. Interesting property built from mainly secondhand/recycled materials but nothing lacking in presentation and comforts.

Tranquil, arty and quirky

Our stay at Salt Springs couldn't have come at a better time. With COVID-19 restrictions eased slightly in Victoria we took the opportunity to get our of Melbourne for some much-needed rest and relaxation and this property did just that. The outdoor spa was a real highlight, offering us the opportunity to enjoy the fresh air, the view and warm hot bubbles. The house itself was very cool inside with a quirky 90s industrial art feel. The house was well heated as well so we never felt cold. In all, a great place to stay, quiet and private. We'll be back for sure.
